Company succession
Planning and implementing ownership and governance succession can be quite challenging, in particular for small and mid-sized companies as well as family-owned businesses. Successions may be triggered by a number of reasons, such as personal lifestyle decisions, illness or death. From a legal point of view, succession is a field that requires know-how and experience in a number of areas, in particular in the field of company law, foundation law, M&A, inheritance law and tax law.
